Default fyi, double din finish
fyi, double din finish used rust-o-leum bed liner spray paint very happy with the finish and I think it will hold up well to scratches etc. I roughed up surface with scotch pad first.... and wiped clean.... let cure for approx 24 hrs.

A different random person on the internet did that and hated the results.
How might a curious reader make an informed decision on how they would feel about a similar project?
